Turn your ideas into tools you can use every day on iPhone and iPad. Scripting brings scripts, custom native interfaces and an AI Agent into one workspace. Write your own tools, or describe what you need and let the Agent help create, edit and run scripts. Keep the results and make them part of your daily workflow. BUILD TOOLS THAT FIT YOU Create dashboards, file utilities, personal trackers and interactive widgets with TypeScript, JavaScript and TSX. Use SwiftUI components to build native interfaces that display your data, accept input and perform actions. LET YOUR AGENT WORK THROUGH TASKS The Agent can call tools, read and write workspace files, run scripts and shell commands, and use web pages and knowledge bases for tasks with several steps. Follow tool activity, add instructions while work is in progress and review operations when confirmation is needed. EXTEND WITH SKILLS AND MCP Package repeatable workflows as Skills, or connect MCP servers and external tools. Give your Agent capabilities suited to your work, and organize files, instructions and task context in workspaces. PUT YOUR TOOLS WITHIN REACH Use scripts from Home Screen widgets, Shortcuts and the share sheet. Extend your workflows with Control Center actions, Live Activities and Dynamic Island, custom keyboards and Safari scripts. CONNECT TO NATIVE iOS FEATURES With your permission, scripts can work with calendars, reminders, photos, Health, location, Bluetooth and more. Combine data processing with native interfaces to create personal workflows. EDIT ON YOUR DEVICE OR WORK FROM YOUR COMPUTER The built-in editor includes multiple files, TypeScript completion, type checking, code navigation and refactoring. You can also sync code from your desktop editor, then run scripts and preview widgets on your device. Start with a built-in example and make it your own. When you need more control, keep editing and extending the script. The Agent and full code editor are free to use. AI requires a model service that you configure; availability and charges depend on the provider. Some extensions and advanced features are available through in-app purchases. System features depend on the iOS version, device and permissions. Privacy Policy: https://scripting.fun/privacy_policy/ Terms of Use: https://scripting.fun/terms/
